Verse
Ab A
You'll be there in the slaughter
A#m/b5 B
Freeing me when I'm cornered
C#m Cdim
Being arrested by the mind cops
E Adim C#m
They're the only ones worth changing what you do for
B A
And I try to be in line
B7 E
I guide my fate
Cdim C#m
And what it's good for there's no telling
B
It's blood
A
It's a flood
